On a personal note - It was pointed out that I mispronounced some Bucksport player's names last night and for that I am sorry and apologize. Once I was corrected via Messenger on one name I was able to make the correction. I was at the Celebration of Tammy Dow's Life at MDI High School on Thursday afternoon and managed to get to Ellsworth High School just in time for the tip-off of the game. I didn't have time to check on the pronunciations. For that I am sorry. Not an excuse but fact of life and that's why it happened.
